Strontium ranelate exerts both an anti-catabolic and an anabolic effect on bone cells. To further investigate the molecular mechanism whereby strontium ranelate inhibits bone resorption, we focused our attention on the effects of strontium ranelate on osteoclast apoptosis and on the underlying mechanism(s).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
